Why Choosing the Right Funeral Home Negligence Lawyer Matters

Families trust funeral service providers with the dignity, care, and respectful handling of their loved one's body during one of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. Unfortunately, negligence in this area does happen—and when it does, the emotional impact can be devastating.

Families may find themselves dealing with situations such as:

Mishandling or damage to a loved one's body
Failure to preserve dignity or follow agreed cultural or religious practices
Breach of contractual agreements for funeral, burial, or cremation services
Misrepresentation of services provided or conditions of remains
Loss, misidentification, or improper storage of remains

At Peerali Law, we have represented families experiencing funeral home negligence across Los Angeles and Southern California. These cases are rare, complex, and deeply personal.

Choosing a lawyer who understands both the legal framework and the emotional weight of funeral home negligence is critical to achieving accountability and meaningful resolution.

CASE STUDY

How Peerali Law Secured 4x A Client's Original Offer

In the case mentioned above, the client's original attorney got a $74,000 offer from the liable party's insurer. But Kristopher Peerali took on the case and won a $300,000 settlement within three weeks. This was possible through qualifying the injuries as "catastrophic" and detail the full extent of damages—including future medical bills, loss of earning capacity and emotional suffering.

What Counts as a Funeral Home Negligence Case?

Not every mistake rises to the level of legal negligence. A funeral home negligence case typically involves conduct that breaches professional standards, contractual obligations, or basic duties of care owed to families.

Examples that may warrant a case include:

  • Promising an open-casket service but later retracting it due to the condition of the body
  • Improper handling, storage, or preparation of remains
  • Cremation errors or unauthorized cremation
  • Failure to follow religious, cultural, or contractual instructions
  • Providing misleading information about services performed

These cases require careful legal analysis and sensitive handling. Our firm is built to manage both.

Our Promise

Transparent Fee Structure

At Peerali Law, we operate on a no-win, no-fee model. This means you pay nothing upfront, and you owe us nothing unless we win your case.

Industry Standard

Across the United States, contingency fees for personal injury cases generally range from 33%–40%, and may increase if a case goes to trial. Some firms also add extra fees or charge back expenses to the client — often without making this clear at the start of representation.

Our Commitment

We don't believe in hidden costs. Peerali Law provides transparent, written fee agreements so you know exactly what to expect. Many of our clients appreciate that we honor the terms of our contracts — with no surprise charges later.

No Hidden Costs. No Surprises.

Every client receives a clear, written fee agreement before we begin. We honor our commitments and believe in building trust through transparency. Your financial peace of mind matters to us.
